I'm sitting here watching Hilary and Barack on 60 Minutes. For some reason they just don't get me excited. I mean, I wouldn't move to Canada if one of them was elected but there's something missing from each.

Here are just a few reasons why I'd love to see Bloomberg run (and win!).

He's a self-made man

He has an MBA -- he's pro-business

Amazing philanthropist

He's from Massachusetts (so am I)

He's a social liberal

He's a fiscal conservative

Supports government involvement in climate change and strongly in favor free trade

He's short

He got rid of smoking in bars in New York (this eventually spread throughout the U.S. and Europe)

He has a 30 year plan for global warming -- what mayor has a 30 year plan for global warming?

He's adapted his politics to the city he governs -- New York is a luxury city so people have to pay high taxes to live here

He acknowledges that taxes are a necessary evil

In the end, I don't think he's going to run. I wouldn't want him to be a spoiler and he wouldn't want be one either. However, if there is a real opportunity -- even in 2012 -- I'd happily join his campaign.
